A firm favourite come springtime, crisp blue and white stripes have been used in interiors for time immemorial to evoke a touch of coastal charm. But for 2022, stripes are a-changing.
This season’s stripes are super charged, taking on a bolder aesthetic with brighter colour ways and textural contrasts. Fun stripes in a litany of rainbow-inspired hues add a playful touch to your decor scheme, while at the other end of the colour spectrum, monochrome patterns create a striking style statement.

And remember, stripes don’t just mean horizontal and vertical; go diagonal with chevron patterns, or throw away the rule book with wavy stripes.
